Bangladesh Cricket Board will receive $100,000 from the ICC World Test Championship, the smallest fraction of a total prize purse of $3.8 million, alongside New Zealand, Pakistan and West Indies.

Bangladesh finished in ninth position among nine teams in the Championship, the final of which will be played at The Oval, London from 7 to 11 June between India and Australia.

The World Test Championship winners will take home a purse of $1.6 million. The losing finalists will pocket $800,000.

The tournament prize money is the same as that for the inaugural edition of the championship – ICC World Test Championship 2019-21.

The Kane Williamson-led New Zealand side were rewarded with $1.6 million besides the glittering Mace in Southampton two years ago courtesy an eight-wicket win over India in the six-day final.

All nine ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 participants will get a share in the $3.8 million purse. South Africa have earned $450,000 by finishing third in the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 standings.

England who made a late resurgence in the two-year cycle with an aggressive playing style, ended up fourth on the table – a reward of $350,000.

Sri Lanka, who were in the running for a place in the final before their series defeat in New Zealand, dropped down to the fifth spot. Their prize money share is $200,000.

ভোটের অধিকার আদায়ে জনগণকে রাস্তায় নামতে হবে: ফখরুল

‘যুবকরা এখনো জানে না ভোট কী। আমাদের আওয়ামী লীগের ভাইরা ভোটটা দিয়েছেন, বলে দিয়েছেন—তোরা আসিবার দরকার নাই, মুই দিয়ে দিনু। স্লোগান ছিল—আমার ভোট আমি দিব, তোমার ভোটও আমি দিব।’
